Yazoo Street Scandal lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Yazoo Street Scandal lyrics Songwriters: Robertson, Jaime Robbie; Stranded out in the night Eliza took me down To see the widow give Rain to the town It s against the law To be a tonic man But the widow knows She s got the upper hand So I went on in Feelin kinda wheezy You know she soothes my mind, boys She rocked me kinda slow and easy All day and all night Pick a card before you go It s a long trip to Mexico Eliza waiting by the door I can t stay here anymore, no, no, no, no Then she took a pill She washed her feet in the mud She said, "Look out son You know, I just ordered a flood For forty days and forty nights" Then I dropped my shoes Eliza called my name She said it looked to her Like it s gonna rain Then the cotton king He came in chokin And the widow laughed and said "I ain t jokin " "Take once for all" She said, "Now don t you tease me I just fell in love, boy So rock me kinda slow and rock me kinda easy" Sweet William said With a drunken head "If I had a boat I d help y all float" Eliza stood there watching William in a trance As the widow [Incomprehensible] The St.Vitus dance But just then an old man With a boat named, Breezy Said, "You can ride with Clyde, boys If you rock it kinda slow and rock it kinda easy All day and all night" song lyrics
